Hi Jan,

Could you elaborate on what this comment means?  More specifically, did 
you translate code directly (presumably from Dylan), and could they 
claim copyright in some way on your work?

If you aren't sure we should check with the FSF copyright clerk as I'm 
not that clear on the rules here either.

Thanks
Eric
